FBI Director Wray: Hamas Attack Sparks Unprecedented US Terror Threat

FBI Director Christopher Wray warned that the recent attack by Hamas on Israel will inspire the most significant terror threat to the United States since the rise of ISIS. Wray stated that multiple foreign terrorist organizations have called for attacks against Americans and the West, increasing the threat posed by homegrown U.S. violent extremists. The U.S. government has observed a rise in threats against Jews, Muslims, and Arab Americans since the conflict in Gaza began. Wray also highlighted an increase in attacks on U.S. military bases overseas by Iran-backed militia groups and warned of potential cyber attacks against the United States if the conflict expands.
